Kirk Cousins time as the Washington Redskins starting quarterback is over. Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said Monday that Colt McCoy will start Week 8 for the team against the Dallas Cowboys if Robert Griffin III remains unable to play with an ankle injury. Cousins was benched in favour of McCoy after starting 10-of-16 for 139 yards with one interception. McCoy completed 11-of-12 passes for 128 yards and a touchdown. McCoy’s first play of the game was a 70-yard touchdown throw to Pierre Garcon. The Redskins lost four straight games with Cousins under centre prior to Sunday. Cousins has thrown for 1,710 yards with 10 touchdowns and nine interceptions in six games this season. UFC veteran lightweight Melvin Guillard has been released by the organization. "The Young Assassin" is mired in a 2-5 skid with one no contest that was capped off by a disappointing unanimous decision loss to Michael Johnson at UFC Fight Night 38 in London on March 8. His manager Malki Kawa announced his release Thursday night. "Theres no doubt Melvin ran the entire fight and was incredibly passive, the complete opposite of how he used to fight," UFC president Dana White said of Guillards last performance. "There was a lot of smack talk leading up to that fight, and those are the fights that everybody gets excited about, and nine times out of 10 they end up like tonight. Those drive me crazy. "I was excited for that fight. I thoughtt (they were) both really explosive athletes who can mix it up really well, and it just didnt happen tonight.dddddddddddd" The loss was a last straw of sorts for the inconsistent Guillard. Despite being awarded Knockout of the Night on three spearate occasions, the New Orleans native never established himself among the lightweight divisions elite. Guillard debuted in the octagon during the second season of "The Ultimate Fighter" in 2005. From 2008 to late 2011, Guillard put together his finest run, scoring eight wins in nine fights but failed to defeat household lightweight names like Nate Diaz, Joe Lauzon and Jim Miller. Guillard leaves the UFC with the third most wins, most knockdowns and most knockouts in lightweight history.
